remove cast iron pot stands and pull off all knobs and small timer buttons. lower the oven doors and look up under the panel holding the knobs and you'll see a screw at each end, remove them. you can now remove the stainless switch panel, (swing the bottom out first) you can now get access to screws at each top corner which should be removed. you can now lift the top panel of the cooker by about 5 inches when a pivoted stay should drop down each side to allow you to rest the top in an open position.
First and all diconnect the power cord.
The element secured by two 1/4" screw in the oven.
you have to pull Range out and go, emove the back panel and remove the element wiring connector, and you are ready to replace it with the new one.
Should you need more details please feel free to contact me. I can provide you wiring diagram and instruction booklet. [email protected]
I've just had this prob on an inherited (just moved into new house) A2. Thought I was losing the plot as followed instructions to the letter re starting gas hobs. Got an engineer in to give the ecking thing a general service & told him about the hob. He said I wasn't pressing the knob hard enough. If you press the knob enough to make the ignition click, press the knob a bit further (it will go a bit further "in" honest). If you do that it should start like a good 'un (I felt sooo daft). Something to do with magnets!! Anyway, give it a try (this works for me unfortunately I've had the damn inner glass on the main oven go pop - yes, infront of an engineer twice in less than ten days. Knobs aside, I'm starting to go off this cooker. I want to cook to eat not have a "pretty" in the kitchen!).
is there a heat probe inside the oven? sound like you owen is overheating. i would check the TOD, if the oven has one. this thermostat regulates the temperature and if it's "open" it needs to be replaced.
check first that you have power to the appliance - open the cover over the connection box and check with a multimeter. also carefully check that the connection box is not burnt out. this is likely not a fault with the cooker but your power input
go to a supermarket a buy a thermometer that is oven safe.put the thermometer in the oven and set it to 350 degrees.when the oven light goes out open the door and see what the temp reads on the themometer.it could me the tstat,are you getting the correct voltage to the element or not sure?
This tutorial will show you how to check your Smeg element and how to replace your Smeg cooker element.
Here are the 3 main faults to look for in your oven or cooker that is not heating
Your oven will not work until the clock/timer has been re-set after replacing an oven element or tripping the electrical supply. Consult your Smeg manual.
If your Oven is not getting hot or heating up it could be a faulty element, if the fan in the oven is running and the thermostat light is on, this will lead us to believe that the element has gone faulty. With grills the thermostat light should come on there should be heat, if not then this could be the grill element or the thermostat.
When you turn the oven on, the household electrical supply trips on the Rcd (this is the earth trip in the fuse board sometimes called the breaker tripping) your fan oven element has gone to earth and needs replacing.
Question edited for clarity.
The thermocouple safely device needs replacing. It's job is to make sure there is a good pilot flame before opening the main burner valve. When they fail, the flame goes out. You can try holding the knob longer, or just call for service and have it replaced. It is a gas appliance so should only be worked on by a gas certified technician. It is a fast job, in and out in 30 minutes, so call out plus the part.

As an AI language model, I do not have access to specific product information or wiring diagrams. It is important to obtain the correct wiring diagram for your specific model of gas stove to ensure proper and safe installation. I recommend consulting the user manual or contacting the manufacturer or a licensed electrician for assistance.
